Boreal Forest…

Moving North

The boreal forest occupies a great deal of Canada in particular the Northern parts and in the Northwest Territories. The parts of the territories that don’t have boreal forest are called the barren lands, and associated with permafrost and generally a moss on the top of the land that insulates and keeps the permanent frost just below it.

The Boreal forest does progress north as the frost comes out of the land and over time the Boreal forest pushes north.

It is a bit of a hope that the response of this dynamic will mitigate global warming to some extent, however the reliance should be limited as the world 🌎 is in a considerable supply and demand situation and it needs to come to the standard of the zero net carbon emissions by 2050.

Every one a part to play.

So, in the past it’s been our position that if everybody just did something we could probably solve this. Today our position has shifted to if everybody did something they would feel a lot better.

It may be the things that have to be done have to be on an industrial scale and we’ll just leave that thought for now.

Amazon atmospheric streams.

The other iconic hope is the Amazon rainforest logging and demand for agricultural land as land is depleted of its nutrients is in the forefront of the mindset of many people that are concerned. And rightly so.

This dynamic has affected the atmospheric streams that are picked up as the tropical rainforest emits groundwater out from its tops and through its leaves. These atmosphere streams could be said to have brought water to California in in previous decades.

These are hope situations some of the many circulating around on what’s happening to our planet and what we can do about it.

The one that the Boreal forest will somewhat save us from the extra carbon that is in the atmosphere by its expansion northward to the Great Canadian Boreal forest has some merit.

Im both incidents you are dealing with one or two generations however the demand including oil, minerals and resources is on the thousands of generations that it took to put in place. Before the industrial age and it’s population expanded in the last few generations to encompass a real surge on the planet

Good luck, stay calm and carry on.

Emmisions from electric generations to end.

The federal government has announced another goal for its climate and emission plan. This is a precursor to a new budget coming out in weeks.

Forty percent decrease in emmisions from 2005 level.

This is the tenth plan and none have met the projections as yet, the PMO says if we don’t act now it will be too late. The plan includes incentives for EVs, charging stations, and other green programs. The new goal is also projected for 2030. Oil and gas methane is targeted for a 75 percent reduction by 2030.

Ambitious undertaking

This new addition to the emissions program is called ambitious.

According to earth sky news 2017 was the 2nd warmest since records began (NASA) 3rd warmest according to NOAA  records. Five of the warmest years have occurred since 2010.
On another note Genghis Khan killed 11 percent of the worlds human population making and ruling his world empire. An estimated 700 million tonnes of Co2 was taken out of the environment by the drop in population of humans and there oxygen C02 contributions (and the fact that the land and forest was under less stress by their absence.
The Carnegie institute produced a study on the 13th centuries warrior emperors impact on the world. The Guardian published in 2011 a headline “Laying waste to land scrubbed 700m tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere”. The Khan is also attributed to be the source of DNA for 1 in 200 people on the planet today. There is no comment on the impact on the environment from this, however in some of his battles it was noted that the earth was soapy from human tissue. What a way to clean up the planet; and accidental as well.
seriously the population of the planet is a potential for human resources and when a great majority of them apply them selves to a better life it ought to work without so much contention. Natural disasters not with standing the resources of destruction still need to be turned to plow shears, who’s going to do it? You in your own way and to your enlightened satisfaction will build us a future without the mess. Good luck and good will…
